Daily News | Sixers’ Daryl Morey only willing to trade James Harden for an elite player or something that can turn into one
No one should be surprised by Daryl Morey wanting a king’s ransom from potential trading partners for disgruntled point guard James Harden.president of basketball operations was that way with recalcitrant Ben Simmons, waiting out his demands. The Sixers eventually acquired Harden from the Brooklyn Nets for Simmons in a blockbuster deal.
Obviously, as Morey went on to note, the Sixers would eventually lose the second-round series in seven games.The Sixers’ second option, according to Morey, is to trade Harden for enough draft picks that they can flip for a player who can become a running mate with MVP Joel Embiid. That led to a prolonged standoff, which became circus-like situation, as Simmons never played for the team again before being dealt six months later for Harden.
However, the Clippers and other NBA teams are reluctant to give up an All-Star caliber player and/or multiple first-round picks for a player who has lost a step and is on an expiring contract.“We need to make sure that Joel Embiid, one of the best players on Earth, has a top running mate,” Morey said. “That could be [Tyrese] Maxey having a leap forward. [New coach Nick] Nurse, I know, is very excited about his conversation with Joel, and how he is going to use him.
